I'm not Alice.

Falling down a hole,
arriving at a place of pretend.
Facing the challenge of sanity,
accompanied by eccentric friends.

She questions reality,
not sure of what to believe.
This secret she adores,
has been in her heart for so long.
Unknown to the world,
she quietly wishes it was a dream.

Alas, she accepts the truth,
she cannot continue,
so she gives her sincerest goodbyes.
To friends,
to enemies,
to the wonderland that's been her frightening escape.
